MUNCIE, Ind. — The New York Giants added former Ball State quarterback Keith Wenning to their practice squad Tuesday.

Wenning had been a free agent since September, when he was waived by the Cincinnati Bengals shortly after throwing his first NFL touchdown — albeit in the preseason. The Giants placed third-string quarterback Ryan Nassib on injured reserve last Tuesday, leaving Eli Manning and Josh Johnson as the only two active passers on the roster.

Nassib and Johnson will be free agents in 2017.

After the Baltimore Ravens took Wenning in the sixth round of the 2014 NFL Draft, he played a season on their practice squad. He played most of the 2015 season on the Bengals' practice squad before getting bumped to the active roster prior to week 14.

Wenning, who led Ball State to a 10-2 record as a senior in 2013, owns program records for touchdown passes (91), passing yards (11,187) and pass completions (1,012). He is fourth in Mid-American Conference history in touchdown passes, sixth in passing yards and fourth in completions.
